The Author's POV

Chapter 333

333 Infiltration 1

"This should be the place."

Leopold murmured as he looked at an enormous building in front of him.

"It should be..."

Besides him were Ava and Hein.

Since the barrier had been set up and was covering the whole mountain, they decided to use the free time they had available to fix their equipment.

Although they wanted to rest, they acknowledged the fact that before they could do that, they had to have all of their equipment ready. After all, no one knew what could happen in the future.

The barrier could be turned off at any moment, and they knew that if that happened, they'd be the first to die.

This was something they had learned during their journey to Henlour.

Ci Clank-

Entering the building, a wave of hot hair brushed against the skin of everyone present.

It was already hot outside, but the moment they entered the building, it felt as though they were inside of a steaming hot sauna.

Breathing started to become more challenging, and sweat started forming on the side of their faces.

Wiping the sweat away from his face, Hein tiredly muttered.

"It's way too hot here…I'm going to die."

"I feel you."

Leopold lazily muttered.

The heat was causing his body to feel extremely lethargic.

"How may I help you?"

Respectfully greeting them at the lobby was a dwarven girl. With a smile on her face, she kindly looked at Leopold and the others who had just arrived.

Unlike them, she was not sweating.

From the looks of it, she was used to this type of heat.

"Hey."

Leaning against the counter, Leopold breathed out in exhaustion.

-Plack!

Taking out his gun, he placed it on the counter and lethargically asked.

"Where...can I get ammunition for this? I'm kind of running low. Haa…it's too hot."

"This..."

Lowering her head, the dwarven girl stared at the gun-like device on the counter.

Pointing at the gun, she looked at Leopold and asked.

"May I?"

"Go ahead."

Picking up the gun, she carefully analyzed it from top to bottom.

After a while, putting it back on the counter she pointed towards a corridor on the right side of the lobby.

"Judging from the model of the artifact you showed me, what you're looking for should be over there. Prices can vary from what types of bullets you are trying to get."

"Thank you."

Thanking the receptionist, Leopold took the gun and proceeded to head towards the direction she had pointed at.
